Diary of a Single, Successful and Complicated Woman

I’m a 30 year-old woman trying to make it day to day, in this crazy thing we call life…

Clean House…

For the record, there is nothing better than a Clean House…Or maybe the smell of a Clean House!  I woke up this morning to a mixture of Clorox and Glade’s Lavender Meadow Scented Oil.  Mmmmmmmmmm….Heaven!!  Sorry, I just had a moment…and I am back.  As you can tell, I have had a MAJOR case of procrastinitis this weekend, particularly yesterday.

Instead of working on my three papers…I decided to do a little Spring Cleaning.  At first I started in the kitchen…then transitioned to the living room…on to the dining room area…next upstairs…and then the bathrooms…Sigh.

I even DUSTED!  LOL!  I basically did any and everything I could to keep my mind off of the three papers that are looming over me.

And even today, I am in no mood to read an article or write a paper.  I just want to chill and catch up on my DVR’d 60 Minutes episodes.  I know, I know…60 Minutes?!?  YES!!  But I LOVE the news and I love the different segments and contributors.  But I digress…

There has to be some cure for procrastinitis, right?  Or maybe, I really needed this weekend to relax, catch up on 60 Minutes and clean my house.  Seriously, I had research articles everywhere.  Now, I can actually see my dining room table.  Holla!!  Man…will I be happy when graduate school is OVER and I have my life back!!

No More Text Messages…

So….I have decided that I am no longer going to entertain a certain gentleman’s text messages.  I am over it…tired, bored and in need of something real.

Chasing Pavements…

I woke up this morning with the goal to be as productive as possible!  So, far, I’m doing okay.  With only a few interruptions via my DVR, Gmail, and my blog, I think I’m well on my way.

Except, I can’t stop thinking about HIM.  After not seeing HIM (in-person) in over five years, we decided it was time for a reunion.  I am not going to lie, it was really NICE seeing him and being around him.  I realized that I have really missed him.  However, looking back on everything…I should have just kept my distance as our little encounter has left me really a little unnerved.  Meeting up with him unearthed feelings I thought were long gone.  I have gone from being a happy, confident and secure woman to a sad, desperate, pathetic girl waiting from him to call or text.  Lord, I swore I would never be that girl/woman again!  As it is just not a good look….not a good look at all.

Of course, he has not called or texted…not that I really expected him to.  SIGH…I feel like such a fool for falling for his crap again.  Damn…I am so much smarter than this and should KNOW better!  I know now that we cannot be friends and we cannot be lovers and/or partners either.  This time, I really have to sever all contact and ties with him, because it is not healthy for me.

Each time before, we won’t talk or be in contact with each other for a couple of months or so, but then inevitably, someone will send a text or an email and we pick up where we stopped.  I tell you, it’s such a vicious cycle!  I feel like I’m chasing pavements

Yikes…I just had a scary epiphany.  I haven’t had the best luck with men, because secretly, I think, I’ve been pining for him and sabotaging all my other relationships. I have to make some serious changes soon…

Well, until my next thought…please be well!
